Who would have thought that the most lively food scene in Flushing late at night is not even in the…read moreheart of downtown Flushing? Instead, walk 10-15 minutes south on Kissena Blvd and you will find a group of street vendors gathering nightly on the sidewalk right in front of Gold City Supermarket. On a beautiful night, you'll find many people camping out on the ledge of the supermarket parking lot, or even putting out picnic blankets, while enjoying various street foods they can find at this great little "food fest". The street vendors are from different regions of China and serves all sorts of yummy goodies. You can find lots of fried items, soup noodles, grilled skewers, marinated meats and veggies, desserts, etc. One of my favorite stalls is the vendor selling hand torn shredded chicken ($25 each), which they dress up in seasoning and spices. They use an older chicken that has a firmer texture that won't fall apart when tearing the meat. The flavor is wonderful and absolutely addictive. They even give you a frequent buyer card that gets you a free chicken when you reached six purchases. The same stall also sells marinated items that are quite good. You are allowed to mix and match as long as they have the same price point. Another stall I would recommend is the stinky tofu stall. There are often more than one, but I like the one with the longest table space only dedicated to this single product, often in the middle of the block. If you have never tried this delicacy, close your nose and give it a go. You may be pleasantly surprised. Other stands that are popular include the BBQ grilled meats over charcoal, where you can get $2-3 skewers of lamb, beef, chicken wings, and whole lot more. Also, if you see the man grilling whole squids, his stuff is quite tasty too. Bottom line, it's a fun evening hanging out with your friends and snacking on various yummy bites. Be brave and try something new. Though there are few English signs, just order what looks good. Find a day with nice weather and check it out soon.

Customer service is horrible. Food tastes good, the price and portions are still good.

Hamza & Medina Halal Food on Union Turnpike is a must-visit if you're craving flavorful, satisfying…read morehalal food. My go-to order is the chicken over rice, which is always fresh, seasoned perfectly, and super filling. I've also had the combo rice platter, which is just as delicious. Each dish comes with a drink, which is a nice bonus. You can't go wrong with the white sauce, and if you're in the mood for some heat, the hot sauce adds a flavorful kick without overpowering the dish. I also recommend trying it with white sauce and BBQ sauce for a sweet and tangy twist. It's a takeout-only, cash-only spot with no seating, but the food is more than worth it. Parking is available either on the street or in the nearby strip mall lot, so it's pretty convenient. Service is pretty quick, but being the only good halal spot around the area, the line can back up since there is only 1 person usually in the cart. If you're in the area, this place is a no-brainer. Fast, tasty, and always hits the spot.

Delicious pickles!…read more Tried Pickle Me Pete at the 2025 Bryant Park Holiday market and they did not disappoint! Fried pickles- so tasty! I also loved the pickle flight. My favorites were the half sour, the horseradish, and the Kosher dill (yes, I am aware that is half of the whole flight, but they were all so good). The half sour reminded me of a pickle I had in Japan- it's somewhat similar to the Korean cucumber kimchi- a very mild pickling, so you could eat a lot without ingesting too much sodium, almost closer to a cucumber than a pickle. The Kosher dill is your classic pickle and the Horseradish has, well, horseradish and a slight kick. Sour garlic was very tangy. Too tangy for my taste. Wasabi didn't taste spicy at all while super spicy was quite spicy. Overall, so fun to try different pickles! Would highly recommend!

It is directly across from the Dunkin Donuts in the middle of a dozen Mexican street food vendors, you can't miss it with its blue and white umbrella cover. In a busy intersection filled with cars, people, running trains, and classic Mexican street food, you will find Pinchos La Suquita (a skewer cart) selling BBQ pork and chicken skewers, chorizo sausages, roast pork, and one of my favorites, Elote (grilled Mexican street corn). For $3 you have a choice between grilled or boiled corn, with mayo and Cotija cheese. For less than $10 you can get more than you can eat. The neighborhood around Corona Plaza is filled with authentic Mexican restaurants, street vendors, bakeries, and supermarkets. A wonderful cultural experience that starts with this central food cart.

You pick your spice level so don't worry if you like no spice they will do it but honestly you gotta have some spice in your life or it's no fun. Be adventurous and try new things, the menu is massive for a tiny street cart but they crank out the orders faster than ninjas taking your house.

A lot of restaurants that were still open this late had really long wait times (1+ hour wait) since so many people had fled from the Citi Field Stadium to grab food in Flushing, too. Luckily, my boyfriend spotted this Chinese street vendor selling various skewers. I don't remember exactly what we ordered and how many of each. These were a few that I remember: lamb, beef, squid, fish ball, fish tofu, quail, chicken feet, been tendon, chicken wings, Taiwanese sausage, and corn. It took awhile to get our order since there was quite a line of people ordering and waiting for their orders. It was still faster than the waits at the restaurants we had planned to go to. I really liked everything we got!

Heard from my friend that this is a popular skewer cart spot on the corner of Prince Street among…read morelocals who live in the area. It's 2 min across the street from the Tangram Mall. Not too far away from the 7 train either. Great for those who wanna stop by for a midday bite or a late midnight snack. It's at a spot where there're two wooden benches and they've also put up several plastic stools. They're opened til midnight everyday. The menu is plastered on the side of the cart. The skewers are super cheap, price doesn't seem to have been increased over the years. Most options are labeled at $2/stick like lamb, beef, and chicken with the exception of squid for $4/stick. Where else can you get chunky pieces of meat at this cheap price? Nothing beats that price. This is CASH ONLY. Definitely bring some cash if you ever decide to stop by. Fast and friendly service from staff. Ask for napkins after getting skewers. Bought two sticks of lamb skewers for $4 in total. Quite tasty and flavorful with just the right amount of seasoning & spices. Would have been great if they've a license for alcohol because everyone knows that skewers go great with beer. Can see myself going back before hopping on the train. Will recommend this skewer cart to friends and family.
